So there's some magic; just like there is in Rails; if you wanna grok

can do a better job of visualising the magic - e.g. like above,
generating reports for type conversions, components etc).
Beware cargo-cults ;-)
To push the rails example, they have lots of magic, yes, and lots of
extremely highly detailed logging of how a request was processed
turned on by default. So where they use magic (dispatch and naming)
they also have extensive color-coded logging showing exactly how your
request as processed. It helps to make up for the magic.
